bone ache
have you ever loved someone so hard
that your bones ache
this love is a
tangible thing
it’s a piece
that i have dug out
from my breastbone
marrow that once nourished
my body now
belongs to you
i ache in your absence
but i ache in your presence
i have given
everything there is to
give;
i ask for nothing
in return
except
don’t leave me
